On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, President Donald Trump calls into the show and discusses transforming the U.S. from a dead country under President Biden to the hottest nation globally, as affirmed by world leaders. Trump describes handling the Russia-Ukraine conflict through instinct rather than rigid processes, emphasizing his success in securing hostage releases without concessions. He praises PM Benjamin Netanyahu as a war hero amid legal challenges and recounts authorizing a precise military strike on Iran’s nuclear facility, which pilots had prepared for over 22 years, preventing imminent nuclear weapon development. Furthermore, our media is deeply flawed, and Susan Rice is no exception as she criticizes Trump for not securing a cease-fire agreement. However, Trump is addressing a much larger issue that extends beyond just a cease-fire. European leaders, along with Zelensky and Putin, will not agree to a deal unless it meets their standards. It’s noteworthy that Trump was able to facilitate discussions between Zelensky and Putin, a feat that Biden and many previous presidents would never have achieved. Also, Rep. Gregory Meeks and Rev. Al Sharpton have attacked Trump with “taking over” cities using the National Guard, effectively seizing control of significant African American neighborhoods and exploiting them. They even labeled Trump as “Jim Crow 2.0,” a truly reprehensible accusation. However, many in Washington DC, including members of the African American community, are recognizing the need for safety and are thankful that the National Guard was present. With crime rampant in Washington DC and numerous other cities, this is a crucial part of Trump’s strategy to restore safety and make these cities safe again.

Segment 1
Hello America. Hello, Mr. and Mrs. America. It’s a great evening. We have our wonderful President with us, President Donald J. Trump. Mr. President, how are you today, sir? I’m very good. Thank you very much, Mark. Thank you. It’s a great honor to have you here, as you know. And you’re very, very busy. First off, I don’t know where you get all this energy, but you’re very, very busy. It’s an amazing thing. I’m serious about this, though. You wake up in the morning, you say there’s things to do. I’m president for a short period of time and I’m going to do and I’m going to take on the hardest things in the world and do them. Is that your mentality? Well, even in the campaign, you know, I campaigned it was 120 days out. And I said, you know what, Every day? And I went every day. I didn’t do anything. I didn’t do anything. I didn’t do golf, I didn’t do sports. I didn’t do anything. All I did was work and I did seven days a week. And I did, you know, many, many, many rallies, oftentimes two or three a day toward the end at least. And it was amazing. And I notice that my opponent, Carmelo’s a you have great respect for. I know you think she’s fantastic, would have been a fantastic president, but Kamala should put out her sheet. You know, they put it out once a week and it would be like she’s off three or four days where she was taking these huge chunks of time and not doing anything. And I said, you know, you’re going for the presidency of the United States. They would go, that the gold ring. Right. And you just got 120 days. I would think every single day you have to be on. And she didn’t do Joe Rogan. She didn’t do a lot of the shows she could have done. And she I don’t know if she did you, but I tend to doubt it. But no, she should have done but she didn’t do a lot of things and she had a lot of time off. And I say when you’re when you have this one shot at something, you have to do it. And, you know, with I worked, I don’t think I’ve ever worked certainly more consistently than that. And it’s just a carryover. We’re doing a lot of great things. I think our country right now, we’re the hottest country anywhere in the world. What they were told me yesterday in the Oval Office, Mark, they were in, as you know, the leaders of the really great leaders of great countries, very substantial countries, great countries, rich countries. They said the United States is the hottest country in the world right now. And everybody says essentially in the same pretty similar terms that a year ago our country was dead and now you’ve got the hottest country in the world. And we are the United States is the hottest country anywhere in the world right now. Yeah, it is. And you’ve done that because clearly it was one of the coldest countries when Biden was president. Let me let me ask you a question. Which cold is right? You’ve got a lot of balls in the air with this this Russia and and Ukraine thing. You’ve got Naito, you’ve got these Naito countries, you’ve got our national security interests, you’ve got Russia and Ukraine, their interests and so forth and so on. Is there a method to this? In other words, you talk to the two main people first, then you talk to is there process here or you just kind of go with the flow? Well, it’s probably instinct more than process. I have instincts and, you know, I’ve lived with my instinct about things. Even running for president. I had an instinct that when the first time and I did even better the second time, as you know, I did much better. Yeah, but bad things happened. You covered probably better than anybody and it was a disgrace. But, you know, now I’m here and a lot of a lot of big things are being found out about the election process from the first time and the second time with all of the Comey stuff and all of that horrible things with Hillary and everything. And now this term, though, is far more powerful and I think far more important than the second term could have been. Far more so. Obviously, you met with Putin, you met with Zelensky, you met with some of these naval leaders. And so far, are you optimistic? I I’m know there’s territorial issues. There’s security issues and God knows what else. Well, you have to be a little bit optimistic. It’s complicated. You know, I’ve settled six wars and a lot of people say seven because there’s one that nobody knows about. But I’ve said all six wars and we did The Iran I wiped out their total nuclear capability, which they would have used against Israel and 2 seconds if they had the chance. But we wiped it out. So many things. But the one that I thought would be the easiest was this one actually, or one of the easier ones. And, you know, like India and Pakistan that was getting ready for nuclear weapons, they were shooting down airplanes from each other. The there was a lot of bad things happening with many of them. Even the longer you go to Africa, the Congo and Rwanda, they’ve been fighting for 31 years. And I got it settled. All settled. They were all happy, everybody settled. Nobody’s been killed. And it’s, you know, a lot of amazing, amazing things. You saw the Arab or Bhaijaan that was happening wasn’t going on for 34, 35 years with Albania. I think of that. I mean, going on for years and I got to know the heads and I got to know them through trade. I was dealing with them a little bit as, Hey, why are you guys fighting? And then I said, I’m not going to do a trade deal if you guys are going to fight, it’s crazy. Anyway, one thing led to another and I got that one settled and that was a one that people said is not you couldn’t settle it. Even when I had them both in the Oval Office at the end when they were getting ready to start and they were sitting next to each other and they were trying to get away, they didn’t feel good. By the end of an hour, they were hugging each other and congratulating each other. It was beautiful to watch, actually, but I’ve done all of them. And, you know, it’s nobody’s ever done anything like that in six months and or in a whole lifetime or frankly, and in eight years, nobody’s ever done it. Most most presidents never did one, you know, stopping six wars and doing all of the other things. We have the greatest economy right now. We have an unbelievable economy. But but I like doing it. I mean, I like doing it. I love stopping the wars. I thought, though, that this one, because I actually had a, you know, good relationship with President Putin the first term. And despite the fact that we had Russia, Russia, Russia. No, forget that’s not easy to overcome when he sees these whack jobs. And he knew it was false because he wasn’t involved. Not to say he’s an angel, by the way, but he knew it was all a made up thing. And, you know, probably he probably thought we were totally crazy this country. And we were it was a very corrupt bad situation. And it actually put us in danger. If he and I didn’t understand each other, it would have actually had us. We would have actually been in danger as a country. Hmm. Now, you know, we’ve we’ve heard talk about security arrangements for the Europeans would lead the way and also territorial concessions. We don’t really know what that means yet. Right. Obviously, you know things and it’d be foolish to reveal all this stuff. But in terms of security, if they’re really capable of the Europeans helping secure Ukraine, because you have them beefing up their military, they can buy some of the best weapons on the face of the earth from us. Is that what you have in mind? Well, they can. And, you know, Biden spent $350 billion, it looks like. Okay, much more than 300 billion. Can you believe this? And spent all of that money, much of it in cash, much of it in weapons, but bought them a tremendous amount. I mean, of course, the United States, a fortune and we have an ocean in between. You know, we shouldn’t have been much involved if we could solve a war, it’s great. You know, they lose 7000, 5 to 7000 people a week. And if I could do that for any country, I’d love to do that. I don’t care if there’s an ocean or no ocean between us, but in our case, there’s an ocean in between. So Europe spent $100 billion and that’s a lot of money, but it’s not $350 billion. And I was complaining about this for one of the reasons I ran. I said, this guy, it’s why is he doing this? Look, he was grossly incompetent. He was incompetent 40 years ago, too. He was you know, he didn’t change so much, but he was really bad. And he spent 350 billion. I said, we’re not going to do that. So the first thing I did is I got a rare earth deal from them, and that was worth more than the 350. They felt at least better for the American taxpayer. And then most recently, you know, I did what I did. I made a deal with Dado that. Ada will buy the missiles and buy the weapons and buy everything else. It’ll all go to Renato. They’ll pay us. And for we’re not spending any money on the deal. People are amazed, actually, but we’re not spending any money. Biden used to give away 60, $70 billion every time the president would come here. As you know, President Zelensky would come in and it did say, you know, this and that, and Biden would give him 60, 70, maybe even $100 billion. Since you are a man that works hard for your money, when you hear 100 billion, that 100 million, that’s a lot, right? 500 billion. Billion with a B And I don’t blame Zelensky if you can do that. Do you? P.T. Barnum, the greatest salesman in America? Greatest the greatest show on Earth is right, But he got it. And to a point, where were you? You know, probably at that $350 billion mark. Nobody can even explain. Nobody even knows. You know, if you say, give me a reconciliation, I want to see exactly how it is start. The whole thing is ridiculous. But more importantly, the death being caused over there is incredible. So we’re going to try and stop it. And I think we have a good shot. I had a very successful meeting with President Putin. I had a very successful meeting with President Zelensky. And now I thought it would be better if they met without me. Just to see. I want to see what goes on. You know, they had a hard relationship. Very bad, very bad relationship. And now we’ll see how they do and if necessary. And it probably would be. But if necessary, I’ll go and I’ll probably be able to get it closed. I just want to see what happens at the meeting. So they’re in the process of setting it up and we’re going to see what happens. But you got to stop the killing, Mark. It’s too much killing. I don’t care. You know, you don’t have to be with that again. Nobody from America is being killed when they’re being killed. The United States soldiers are involved. We’re not. We have no boots on the ground. But when you lose 6000, 5000, 7000 young people dead, you also lose some people from the towns and cities as missiles get lobbed into them. Can you imagine living like that where. No, you have no idea whether or not you get to building is going to collapse on top of you? And that’s, you know, that’s where it is. And we have a shot and I think I should do that. But as you know, when you do six of them and they never even talk about that, so you’re the only one that mentions it. And these are six big ones. These are not these. And these these fights were were rampant. You know, they were going in. How about Thailand and Cambodia? I mean, these these were serious wars that was just starting. But a lot of people were killed on the border. And I was talking to one of them and I said, What are you doing with the war? He said, Yes, I am. I am starting and we will have war. I said, How long have you been fighting? 500 years. I said, That’s a long time. But they’ve been fighting on and off. I said, When I heard 500 years, that was a little disconcerting. I said, That’s a lot, lot. But they’ve been fighting 500, you know, over the years, over years and years. They fight. They fight. Then they go back to what they did. Then they fight. And I was able to stop it and not only able to stop it, the two gentlemen got to be very friendly in the list. I mean, you know, you don’t know what’s going to happen, but I stopped the war. So, in theory, you know, they should talk about those days, but nobody ever talks. You’re the only one that talks about it. And these were serious. Look, India and Pakistan. Six planes were shot down and it was getting worse and worse. You saw that. And those are two nuclear places. Serbia and Kosovo is another one. I mean, that was going to be a disaster. And I stopped it. And there’s one other one that I can’t talk about that I stopped before it got started. And it’s an honor to do it that many people I saved. I saved like hundreds of thousands and even millions of people. That’s the good feeling. Now, let me ask you this, because I. Host. And on this, when you look at Russia and Ukraine, Russia has been very aggressive toward Ukraine. Georgia took the Crimea and so forth under Democrat and Republican presidents that preceded you. Yeah. And they invaded. When you left office and Biden came in, it’s like they waited and there’s Biden and then they move. They wouldn’t know that I was there. And they and they never did. They didn’t even Blinken said we wouldn’t have done it if Trump were president. He made a strong statement there that I didn’t ask him to say it. He said this would have never happened. You know, it really started with Obama because Obama gave away Crimea. Right. And Crimea was the heart and soul of that country. It’s beautiful. It’s, you know, this massive piece of land stuck out right in the ocean, right in the Black Sea, sea So beautiful. And it is so beautiful. And Obama said, you give it up to Russia, you know, Then they say I was. They like to say that’s just a soundbite. You know, it’s just. And Trump was weak on Russia. I’m the one that stopped the pipeline. Nord Stream two they never even heard it don’t seem to. I’m the one they gave them javelins. Obama gave them sheets that I gave them javelins and they say Trump was weak. These people are con artists, you know, And Putin will tell you that Putin said, I’d hate to see of you if you were weak. I’d hate to see you if you are strong, because you have been brutal. But but, you know, I get along with Putin and that’s a good thing. It’s two nuclear powers. It’s always good to get along. Right. Well, apparently Hillary got along with Putin in her own strange way, trying to turn all that against you. Let me ask you this. I think this is probably why I have no inside information is probably why Zelensky is nervous. He looks back and he says, okay, the only guy that stops these people is Trump. Now what the hell are we going to do when Trump’s gone? I’m supposed to rely on some Democrat or some weak Republican. So that’s probably gone through his head, don’t you think? It could be. It could be. But I’ll tell you what. When Barack Hussein Obama gave away, he told them, you just give it up. It’s not going to be any fighting. In other words, the United States was going to be back in Iraq. And so they gave it up. And the guy that gave it up is perhaps questionable, too, but they gave it up to Russia. Think of that. So they gave it up to Russia. And that was really the beginning of a disastrous long period for that country. That was the beginning. And nobody talks about that. If I gave up that land, I’d be on the front page of every paper for the next 20 years. When Obama gave it up. They don’t. They don’t even talk about it. Can you imagine? And then they talk about Donald Trump is friendly with you. I didn’t give him Crimea. Crime is massive. I would say like the size of Texas or something in the middle of the ocean. It’s gorgeous. And they gave it up because of Obama. And the press doesn’t even talk about it. Well, they don’t talk about part of Georgia was taken under Republican president. They don’t talk about a gosh, but nothing was taken under your, was it? No, no. They took the whole thing. The way I look at it, if I didn’t come along, they took the whole thing under Biden. They took Crimea under Obama and they took a big chunk of Georgia under Bush. Right. But with me, what was taken? Nothing was taken. Nothing. I just look, I came in. This thing was raging. I think it was heading to World War three. And you’re not going to have that anymore. That’s a nice point. You’re not going to have to worry about that. But we’ll see what happens in terms of getting it settled. But this was heading to World War Three. This is the worst thing that’s happened in terms of war. This is these are the biggest numbers that we’ve had since World War Two. And we got a ton of time left. But I wanted to ask you about this. You know, Qatar and Egypt say we think we have a cease fire with Hamas. You know, the American people have watched this over and over and over again. You had Wyckoff there. You’ve been involved. Everybody’s trying to get Hamas to give them. And what is it? We’ll give them half the hostages we’ll get. I think probably people have had enough of this, don’t you? Well, you you saw my statement a few days ago. I sure do. First of all, they weren’t going to give back any hostages. I’m the one that got all the hostages back. By the way, Steve Whitcomb does a great job. It’s a very hard job, but I use him because he’s a very wonderful person that everybody likes. And he’s a good dealmaker and he’s done a great job. But, you know, these people also change their mind. So what happened is we worked hard. We got all these hostages back. I’ve had so many letters from parents and from the kids themselves and the people they got out, but I got them back. Like you wouldn’t have even had any. You wouldn’t have gotten any. And none of these people would have been back. But I got them back. Worked with your friend. Bibi is a good man. He’s in there fighting. He’s fighting. You know, they’re trying to put him in jail on top of everything else. How about that? He’s not he’s a war hero because we work together. He’s a war hero. I guess I am, too. I hope nobody cares. But I have to. I mean, I said those planes, you know, 22 years, the pilots came. I rewarded them. I brought them all to the Oval Office. The people having to do with that whole operation, which was so perfect, which was a total of, you know, just a obliteration. You know, when CNN, they tried to say, well, maybe it wasn’t as good as Trump said it was. It’s just such bad people. It turned out that it was even more so than I said it was obliteration. The Atomic Energy Commission said, this place is gone. They can maybe start it up, but they’re not starting up there, these guys. And you know what that is? That’s sort of a hurting of our our pilots. But when you look at it, when you look at what we’ve done and the success that we’ve had and, you know, they’re putting Bibi through a lot. But as far as Hamas is concerned, I said two weeks ago and I said it a long time ago, you won’t ultimately you’re going to have to fight like hell. Everyone’s forgotten about October 7th. You know, they don’t like to think about October seven. You have some people I guess that’s a sound byte, pretty much a Democrat sound bite. It’s amazing that Democrats like Schumer’s a Palestinian. You know, I think he’s right now a Palestinian senator. We call him the Palestinian senator from New York City or New York. But I don’t know. I think his career is probably over. I guess I see polls where he gets obliterated just. We’re like, we obliterated the nuclear weapons and nuclear the nuclear stockpile that would have been, by the way, I think they would have had nuclear weapons in a period of four weeks. You’re right. I was going to say, the pilots came to the Oval Office and they said, sir, our predecessors and us have been practicing this flight for 22 years, the same flight right to the same place where they stored the stuff. They’ve been practicing it. You’re the only president that had the guts to let us go do it. And if we didn’t do it, they would probably, by this time, just about this time, have a nuclear weapon and they would have used it. You know that? Mm hmm. Well, Mr. President, we’ve run out of time. I just want to tell you, this oriented loves you in this audience. Back to you. Well, we don’t give. We don’t give a damn what the media have to say. They’re wrong about everything, and they’re on the wrong side of history, too, so. Well, we want to wish you all the best in your dealings here. These are tough with Russia and Ukraine. Thank you for what you’re doing with the border and the economy. Thank you. What you’re doing really for Israel, quite frankly, and your support of the state of Israel is a lot of a lot of Israel hatred and anti-Semitism and all the rest of this stuff swirling around. And you stand there and you fight it. So God bless you, my friend. And you are my friend. We are. But so do you find it? Nobody like you and you and Sean and a few people. It’s not a huge group of people because it seems to be heading in the wrong direction in many ways. But in the end, we. When we went all the time. But I just want to thank you, too, and the best to the first lady. That was a beautiful letter. God bless you, Mr. President. Thank you very much. All right. What a man. He’s fantastic.
Segment 2
Donald Trump, you know, fantastic man. And I don’t do interviews like like the journalists pretend journalists who are mostly Democrats and leftists who have all the Democrat talking points and just Hammerman interrupt them and interrupt him and hammer him. I want to hear what he has to say. And if you listen carefully, you learn from him and what he’s doing and how he approaches these issues and so forth and so on. It’s absolutely fascinating. You learn a ton. You’ve never heard this from any other president. PIRRO We’ve heard this before. No, you haven’t. He’s explaining only pro-choice things and so forth. He’s talking up his record because if he doesn’t, who will? And it’s a remarkable, remarkable record. And he’s a remarkable person. This list, in a way, talks certainly compare him to Biden. Biden What a disaster. There even Obama. Obama was full of crap. With all due respect to George W Bush, he could barely complete sentences. Clinton was all, you know, Clinton and Newsom remind me of each other, Bill Clinton. And they just do. Just full of crap and you can hear it all the time, you know, spinning and shucking and jiving and all the rest of it. The thing about Trump, President Trump, when you listen to President Trump. The way he talks to you in this audience. The way he talks to me is the way he talks to Putin, is the way he talks disciplines. He’s very honest and straightforward. You know, you’ve got to do this. You know, you got to do that. And all they do is trash the guy. The left trashes him. The Democrats trash and fake. MAGA. Trash him too. And. I don’t know how he does. It wakes up every morning. He’s fully engaged, takes on every big subject. And on top of that, he’s refurbishing the White House and raising $200 million in private funds and his own funds to build a ballroom or really a bigger centers so they can have meetings in there and events in there without constantly putting tents up on the South Lawn. Nobody wanted to take take that on. He takes it on. And when you meet him in person, he walks around the White House, the West Wing, and shows you these portraits that he had pulled out of the basement that were in storage, had the dust him off, clean them up. He has the portrait, I think, of every president up there moved Obama where it belongs, where nobody could really see it. You could see it, but it’s not a regularly trafficked area. But you brought out the greats and put them out, and then he’ll point to each president or start giving you the history of each one and talking about each one. Now, it reminds me, you know, Reagan, they used to attack him as being dumb and so forth and so on. Reagan read all the great philosophers he knew all about, the founders and so forth and so on. You talk to Trump, he’ll tell you about architecture and architects and. In the history of this and the history of that, it’s quite remarkable. It’s quite remarkable. And when you think about what he’s done securing the border, he’s taken on the crime in Washington, D.C. They have a whole city council. They have a mayor. They have a police force that’s supposed to take it on, but they’re not properly led. So he says, okay, I got to deal with this. The border. He said, I can shut down the border. Shut it down. How many years do we complain about the border and where we lied to? First it was secure and now we need a bipartisan legislative man comes in and shuts the damn thing down. And he’s looking at this Russian Ukraine situation. I don’t know about you folks, but after hearing him speak, I feel pretty confident. In other words, if they can’t get a good deal. In which Ukraine accepts it, in which many of these European countries accept a security role, a significant security role. Then he’s not going to do it because the bottom line is they all have to agree. Russia, Ukraine. And in these, what, about a dozen of these European countries? Now, here’s what I want to say to you about that. Myself, who doesn’t trust Putin and considers him a monster? If you listen to President Trump, he says, look, we get along. I speak to him. I know he never says he’s a good guy. Ever. He never says he’s a good guy. What he doesn’t say are things that a president probably shouldn’t say because he’s trying to make this arrangement. Or what happens if this arrangement is is actually agreed to? Well, we don’t know all the particulars. Okay. So we have to read some of the fig leaf, some of the reporting that’s going out. And I was not going to be so obnoxious an absurd as to ask for specifics. He can’t give them. This is a negotiation. And by the way, there was no pre discussion in advance what I could ask, what I couldn’t. Nothing. Zero. I get guests who come on here who aren’t even elected or what a what’s the subject? He didn’t want to know that anyone asked the subject, but it was pretty obvious. So in any event, what he’s saying is, look, if there’s a security. Agreement in place that Zelenskyy can live with, that the Europeans can live with. We will continue to sell arms to the European. It’s for them and to provide to the Ukrainians, he said on a Fox and Friends this morning. Perhaps we’ll provide air power, that sort of thing, to kind of back them up. Absolutely no troops on the ground. And if that’s the position, that’s a pretty strong arrangement, don’t you think, Mr. Producer? Now, if I’m Ukraine, I don’t want to give up anything either. And if I’m Zelensky, I negotiate as hard as I can not to give up anything. But he’s not going to get Crimea back. It’s not going to happen. Obama lost that. Georgia is not going to get 20, 25% of Georgia back. George W Bush lost that. The invasion into eastern Ukraine that actually occurred. On what kind of Clinton Clinton’s watch and really kind of early on on George H.W. Bush’s watch. And so Trump is dealing with all this now. Obviously, the big massive invasion in 2022, February 2022, that’s Biden. So when you look at all of his predecessors, when you look at Biden. Obama. George W Bush. Clinton. George. Bush 41. All this stuff took place under them. And George Bush 41. It’s not that he was directly involved in all of this. But they the groundwork was laid like for the 1994 Budapest Agreement. In which the Ukrainians gave all their missiles, all their nuclear missiles, and launching systems to Russia in exchange for security that began in 1992 and was signed off by Clinton in 1994. This is why Trump saying, Hey, excuse me, this is all presented to me. And I’m trying to find a way to put an end to it and notice and just notice how he’s doing it. He is prodding. He’s relatively flexible. But he knows what Putin is. We all know what Putin is. Trump is the one. They keep saying, look at all the casualties are unbelievable. What is taking place. And remember when he got pissed off about a month ago or three weeks ago? He warned Putin. About tariffs on India and China, which would choke off their oil sales, choke off their liquidity. And he warned them about a second tier. Of tariffs. He warned them. And the banks. He could today if he wanted to literally destroy Russia’s economy the way Reagan destroyed the Soviet Union’s economy. He could do that. And that’s the card he holds. That’s the card he holds. Tell you something else I like. Then their meeting with Zelinski. The public portion of it. I was not like so many of you. But not all of you. I wasn’t happy with that public. Fighting mostly with J.D. Van Lewinsky. I didn’t like it. It’s no matter what. Zelensky didn’t behave himself. I just didn’t like it. I thought it showed exactly the wrong thing to Putin. It’s not something I liked. The how different this one is. Look how different it is. So the president is driving all of this? All of it. And he’s right about this. If he were a Democrat. And all that he’s accomplished, they’d already be giving him a ticker tape parade, ticker tape parade. Whether it’s DC trying to trying to stop the crime against the people who live in DC, who are mostly black, mostly Democrat. And he’s saying, we got to we’ve got to try and do something about this and I’m going to do something about it. If he were a Democrat. Ticker tape parade. All these other deals that he’s cut internationally. Ticker tape parade. Ticker tape parade. Yeah, it’s just a. You’re watching a historic figure, an iconic figure. And you’re also watching the lowest of the media, the lowest of the Democrat Party, the lowest of the left. That’s what’s going on. I don’t think I trust anybody else with this Russia Ukraine thing. I really don’t. Because Donald Trump is not is not himself going to give away chunks of Ukraine? Ukraine will decide, along with its European partners, in the assistance of the United States where it can and cannot live with it. In the end, if it can’t live with any of it, then it doesn’t have that there’s going to be a war that continues. Putin is a monster. He’s a genocidal maniac. Nobody knows that better than Ukraine. Nobody knows that better than the Europeans. Because they’re there on the chopping block. So. And here’s Trump who’s pushing for a Zelensky. Putin meeting. So there’s a lot that has to happen for any kind of deal to be signed. First, those guys have to meet. Then there has to be more meetings beyond that, that sort of thing. And so nothing’s going to be a surprise. I don’t believe. And I believe it’s something that all of us will be able to get behind. I’d like it. It hasn’t presented itself yet. I’m an honest shooter. I shoot straight. I shoot as I see fit. I think the Russians are getting the upper hand and Europe is stupid and Ukraine is stupid. I’ll tell you. But that would mean Zelensky stupid. That would mean the Europeans are stupid. That would mean the White House says. I just find that hard to believe. And for all the Democrats and their media trashing President Trump. You didn’t say a damn thing when Obama surrendered Crimea. Nothing. You didn’t say a damn thing when Biden effectively told Putin, If you take a little bit of territory, it’s okay. You didn’t say a damn thing about that. Or when 20% or so of Georgia was taken in about 48 hours. None of those presidents who were involved and maybe they couldn’t do anything, but none of them. None of them got the scorn that the media throw on Trump. And none of that happened under Trump. None of it. Zero. And I was the first one to post the fact that these presidents were involved and this was bipartisan. No lamb was taken when Trump was president. And you might say, well, they’ve made advances since. Yes. And he’s trying to bring an end to it. But I don’t remember any of his predecessors taking effective steps. To bring an end to anything. Anyway, I found that fascinating. I find him fascinating. You hear what he said about Hamas. He said, look what I posted the other day and look what I posted two weeks ago. And what did he post? He said he got to destroy them as fast as you can. This latest proposal with the Qataris remember, Qatar is a terrorist state led by terrorists who fund terrorists, who fund the the pro-terrorist movements within our country. Others do, too. But they’re the primary funder of it all. They’re the banker for terrorism, and they funded Hamas. Naig. They also took care of the ringleader of 911. They gave him a safe haven. Tell me, how is it that that country’s a mediator? How is that even possible? They say we have a dealer here. Like wet cough. Like wet cough. Negotiated Netanyahu. Trump They’re all saying, yeah. Okay, great. And what was it I want? Release ten, ten living hostages. You give us a thousand more prisoners and. And it goes on and on and on. Why? Because Netanyahu’s about to wipe them out. And Trump thinks they need to be wiped out. Enough is enough. More when I return. I’ll be right back.
Segment 3
That was the first. Major radio interview of any kind. I think the president had since his meeting with Putin and his meeting with Zelenskyy and the Europeans. And it just remarkable what’s happened so quickly. He seizes opportunity, sees a gap, and he runs for the gap. With opportunities in silver. He sees his opportunities. You can see how he became such an incredibly successful businessman and helped build the skyline of New York City. A very successful media kingpin, if you will, with his program. You can see this is why when people say to me, how did you get to where you are when that door opens, walk through it. In other words, when opportunity knocks, don’t ignore it. You can’t sit down and just say, Oh, woe is me, woe is me. The door opens. Go through it. All of us get opportunities. Some of us know it. Some of us don’t. It doesn’t mean hard work doesn’t create success. Hard work creates opportunity. If you’re lamenting and you’re. Kind of stuck. And that door opens. You walk through it even if you think, Oh, cheese, I’m better than this. One thing leads to another. One thing leads to another. If you don’t do the one thing, then it leads to nothing. That’s another example you can see with the president. It’s really quite remarkable. He had these world leaders in this country within 48 hours. There’s a Wolinsky here within 48 hours, and he meets with them. And it’s not just, you know, sugar cookies and a cup of coffee. The guy is advancing his his agenda. They came with an agenda, which is what he wants. And they want to see what’s possible in the end. Maybe nothing’s possible, but if something’s possible, he’s going to do it. Who else can do this? Can you think of anybody else? I can’t. I can’t think of anybody else. It’s historic. Remember, this is just the beginning. This is a long process. It won’t be as long. Is it normally might be. Well, it’s a long process. It’s a process. And and the media will attack them every step of the way. I don’t mean have legitimate questions on policy. I mean, attack him. Try and sabotage him. We’ll be right back.
